Hypnosis Journals

Hypnosis, also known as hypnotherapy or hypnotic suggestion, is a trance-like condition in which the attention and concentration have increased. Hypnosis is usually performed using verbal imagery and visual images, with the aid of a therapist. You usually feel calm and relaxed when you're under hypnosis, and are more open to suggestions. Hypnosis is a state of consciousness in which the power of voluntary action is apparently lost to a individual.     A person's claimed to have improved attention and concentration during hypnosis. Hypnosurgery is the term given for an operation where hypnotherapy is used to sedate the patient. Its use in therapy has been revived but is still controversial, typically to recover suppressed memories or to allow behavior modification.
